OKKAMO Tri-State Marker
OKKAMO Tri-State Marker is a monument showing the tripoint of Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri. It is located at an elevation of 1,016 feet,[1](one source says 1,024 feet)[2] and is located about 300 feet north of I-44 and about 1000 feet east of the Downstream Casino and Resort, that is operated by the Quapaw Nation.
The original marker was built from native stone in 1938 by the WPA but and is located 50 feet of the actual tri-point (in Kansas). A second marker was added in October 2004 at the actual site of the tripoint.[3][4]
